John Frieda Precision Foam Hair Colour

We were recently sent the John Freda Foam Colour range to try.  Now we're both redheads and do tend to keep our hair natural.  However our younger sister Hana, loves to try out different colours on a regular basis.

So in steps Hana,

But first some info,

"Like the rest of the Precision Foam Colour range, the new products offer salon-beautiful colour results from the comfort of your own home. The revolutionary non-drip foam spreads easily from root to tip and delivers 100% grey coverage, to leave you with nothing but shiny, natural-looking results."

The new shades are:
  • Black
  • Medium copper brown
  • Ash brown
  • Ash blonde
  • Burgundy
And because I like to be a bit bolder with my colour I went for the Burgundy.


This is my starting colour,


I'm a natural blonde, but at this point I had been growing out a coffee brown shade.


So on to the application,



1. Mix 1 and 2 together, and wait for it to start foaming up,


2. Make sure to use the gloves,

3. Apply all over and ensure an even coverage,



End result,



Have to admit the coverage isn't great, but thats more down to me.  Really should of striped my hair first!  There was a lot of different colours built up which has affected the application.  However the application was quick and easy, with very little mess and the colour left my hair very soft!

Need to try it out again, but strip my hair first!

There is a selection of videos now up on the John Frieda You Tube channel which shows you how simple the hair dye is to use http://youtu.be/_BIpxljmLLY



Also six lucky women are already sporting these new shade; you can see their transformation in these videos and pics over at www.facebook.com/johnfriedauk. As you'll see the results are stunning!

Finally keep your eyes peeled this week as we have a little giveaway with John Frieda going up!

N-Spa Indulgent Body Creams




We've mentioned the N-Spa range on here a few times.  It's an affordable yet luxe range of bath and body products stocked in Asda.  Most products are around £5.00 but come Christmas time they bring out some gorgeous little gift sets.  I picked this up in the January sales - for half price, a whole £2.50.

The set consists of 4 body creams - Chocolate Orange, Gingerbread Latte, Vanilla Creme Brulee and Hot Butter Fudge.

All smell amazing but my favourite is the Hot Butter Fudge.



The creams themselves are lovely and rich, but soak in quite quickly and your not left with a any tacky feeling. Once applied your left with a yummy smell all day.

These are only 75ml but usually come in 250ml tubes for around £3.50 to £5.00.

Well worth a go! and I definitely want some more.

Chloe Eau de Parfum




This has quickly become one of my favorite scent. It smells so fresh and femine and is never overpowering.  Not only that but I love the gorgeous design of the bottle - so chic!

The perfume itself consists of  top notes of ;


"peony, freesia and litchi, blending with a heart of rose, lily of the valley and Caribbean magnolia, rounded off with a smooth base of amber and Virginia cedar"


This was a present off my lovely husband and I absolutely love it. It fits in perfectly with my other scents but this is just lovely.

Goodies


I never got around to showing everyone my Christmas presents, but I did want to show you what I received off my Hubbie, as they were so perfect!  This was actually our first Christmas together as a married couple but we've actually been together 8 years, yet this was the first year that he really went all out.











Aren't they both pretty! 

So in love with the Ted Baker watch - the detail is gorgeous and I especially like the teal green featured on the face.  Also I've been wanting a Mischa Barton handbag for ages and this one is perfect.  I love the gold details mixed with the purple interior - just makes it look so chic.

I was one happy girl on Christmas morning.
